Supply Chain Is King
Control the raw materials, control the game. How companies like YKK build unassailable competitive positions through vertical integration and supply chain mastery.
This is my home for thinking about learning, presence, parenthood, and the questions that come from paying attention to life.
My work explores what it means to live deliberately—how we learn, how we stay present, how we balance leisure and work, and how we show up as parents. I'm interested in the spiritual dimensions of ordinary life and what happens when we bring full attention to the ground beneath our feet.
This leads me to many territories: the physics of how things actually work (supply chains, systems, the on-the-ground reality of production), how small consistent actions compound over time, and how we document what we learn. I believe in being rooted—in understanding the fundamentals, in gentle persistence, in thinking that starts from direct experience.
You'll find my current thoughts in essays, my technical projects in experiments, and what I'm working on right now.
Control the raw materials, control the game. How companies like YKK build unassailable competitive positions through vertical integration and supply chain mastery.
How I achieved my first muscle up through six years of gentle persistence, structure, and keeping the goal alive in the background of my life. A lesson in long-term project management.
